She is the author of the novels The Web of Time (2025) and All the Way to Italy (2018). Her shorter work can also be found in The New Humanitarian, Roi Fain\u00e9ant Press, Writer\u2019s Digest, The Nerd Daily, Sky Island Journal, and others. Flavia was the inaugural guest judge for Open Doors Review as well as being a contributor, and she\u2019s a huge fan of the magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
